Looking for Piratey Music, Arrr!

[Orius]

I'm looking for some music that would sound good for a pirate campaign. Stuff for battles, pillaging, sailing, encountering ghost ships, making scurvy landlubbers walk the plank, digging up treasure, fighting krakens, battling ninjas, etc.

Since this is for my PbP game, I would prefer YouTube vids.

And yes, I already have this one (planned out the campaign with it playing in my head):

Master And Commander has some decent nautical-type music. Here's a nice long (over 9 minutes) track that winds through a few different moods:

And a nice tension-builder:

This is a beautiful piece of music. If your players haven't played WOW too much, this wouldn't go too far astray for when they are on the high seas.

You can't go wrong with Running Wild.

Here's a cover version of another Running Wild song. Sony Music Entertainment doesn't want my country to listen to the awesome original in case some crazy German might decide to actually buy the album.

Almost anything by the Chieftains works... They did the soundtrack for the 1990 version of Treasure Island, starring Christian Bale and Charlton Heston. You can find most of the tracks on YouTube:

It's never too late to think about taking up the accordion

I don't have access to it at work, but Paizo did an i-tunes playlist in connection with the Savage Tide AP. It had some good stuff in it.

The Shanty Man's got some good stuff. I picked up a few of his CDs are Scarborough Fair a few years back. I'm sure he's googlable
